The truth about Bansko......

Whilst I wouldn't say I like spending my time queuing, it doesn't particluarly bother me and I would certainly expect queues around New Year and any other particularly busy time. I only mentioned the queues as there have been so many comments about them, especially in Bansko. I was actually expecting it to be worse than it was but maybe it wasn't because I was at the gondola station by 8.30 (except NY Day).

You're being a bit harsh with the "civilisation" comment. Bansko didn't have the infrastructure of an Alpine resort but I knew that was the case and certainly wouldn't call go as far as to call it uncivilised. It was cheap and we got what we paid for but I still had a great time!

I am glad you had a great time and yes, you do get what you pay for.
